    It sounds like it's more of a mental block then a physical one...so how do you get past the mental block...practice. Like some of the things that Euphoric said above...Remind/tell yourself how pleasurable it is once you get into it and keep doing so each time he initiates it. As it seems you need to train your brain to re-think how it feels about sex.

    What about the rest of your intimacy with your husband? Cuddling? Flirting? Date night? speding time together without the TV on? There is so much more to sex than the actual act of penetration. Do you enjoy any of that?

    How are things outside of your relationship with your husband? Work? In-laws? Your parents? Friends? Other stressers?

      It is due to lack of secretion of pleasure hormone from your ovaries, so your libido is declined, if you use testosterone cream as lubricant during sex it may raise your sex drive.
      A friend of mine had the same complaint They both started sleeping naked and used to have sex daily in the morning with the same lubricant, after a month or so they stop this lube and find the sex drive has increased to a greater extent.
